[ROM] [4.4.2] Mackay ROM & Mackay kernel - based on Omni (03-Feb-2014)

[kasper_h]

I have been sharing my CM7/CM9/CM10/CM10.1/CM10.2/CM11-based builds for several devices. Now that I moved over to Nexus 5 as my daily driver, it is also time to mackay MackayROM for this device. MackayROM was first based on CyanogenMod sources, but I decided to move over to Omni as base for my ROM

About Omni: Omni is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 4.4 (KitKat), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.

If you run into errors, I may not be able to solve it!

If you know a solution to a problem, either upload it yourself to Gerrit Code Review or contact me through pm.

The ROM is based on Omni sources with the following changes:
-Mackay Kernel (see below for details)
-Set of cherries picked from gerrit (differing by the day)
-Some additional patches I did myself to the source code

Feature request are OK, but remember:
1. I try to stay close to stock
2. I will not include additional apps, unless they can be build from source
3. The time I spend on features depends on how much I like them myself

Changelog of 03-Feb-2014
-Omni codebase of 03-Feb
-Updated kernel (see few posts before for details)
-Fixes charging led: it now stays on in stead of blinking and will automatically resume function after a notification is removed

s2w seems much more useful to me.

I actually am working on a s2w QS tile ATM, so that no app is needed.

Looks interesting Welcome ! ( Haven't flashed any CM11 Rom/Based rom earlier. Does CM include Center Clock now? Or have you cherry picked it ? TY )

 

[derboedi]

Great to see your work over here in N5 section, Kasper. Will give it a try and let you know how it goes.

No center clock for cm. I may add it later, I like it myself especially on tablet. But also nice for phone I guess.
